Evolutionary technology

The traditional platform for ERP systems is big, expensive iron, but cloud computing may be about to change that for the better.

01 August 2013

Over the past decade or so, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) has become part of the fabric of big business and is increasingly permeating the small to medium business sector. As such, ERP has become part of the plumbing of business, with tentacles reaching into every facet of operations. In short, an inside out kind of approach. That was then, when every company had its own centralised computer systems and staff consuming significant resources.

Today, every company wants to mitigate costs without compromising quality and is looking at the cloud. At this roundtable, we investigate how major ERP vendors are incorporating cloud-based thinking into their existing product lines and adjusting their pricing policies to be more in tune with the new computing reality.
